Ear Biometrics

Device Security

By combining the most natural of all phone gestures – lifting your phone to your ear – with the unique geometry of your ear, we have created a robust and reliable lockscreen security solution. ERGO™ utilizes Android’s built in locking mechanisms to ensure your device is properly secured.

Easy to Use

The convenience of ear biometrics for mobile device security is not easily matched. When ERGO is running, by simply raising the device to an ear in a natural way, all necessary data is captured at the precise moment the ear taps the screen. A unique security profile is calculated and can be adjusted at your convenience.

Mobile App

ERGO leverages the capacitive touch screen to capture a user’s unique ear impression. In addition to touch points, ERGO relies on a number of other sensors embedded in modern smartphones. Enterprise business solutions are limitless with ERGO as well. View the ERGO SDK.
